40 foot DRV towing

Waldmeer,
Congratulations on the new rig! I know you are going to love it.

I tow (and stop) my MS with no problems with my Chevy 3500. I do respect the load and drive accordingly but I would do that with any combination.

Take your time while parking. Best to use a spotter to assist. Get out and take a look (frequently) if you don't feel sure about where the rig is going. It helps to put down a target on the ground that you can use to gauge your progress and approach. Could be a ball or a piece of rope. Before long you will be an expert and putting that unit in places you never thought possible. If you can find a big parking lot to practice without an audience so much the better. I get most of my practice at my storage site :)

Everyone who has towed had the same concerns when they started. You will do fine. Have fun!
